Author: W.H. Downing
Format: Paperback
Number of Pages: 224
The re-release of the World War I memoirs of a Melbourne law student. First published in 1920, it was reissued by Duffy and Snellgrove in 1998 and sold mainly through independent bookstores. We believe it has a far wider sales potential, because this is quite simply, the best book ever written about Australians at war. This printing has a new cover, based on the original 1920 edition. The book has a strikingly clear and simple style, and describes the battles of the Western Front in France, where some 60,000 Australians lost their lives - a scale of tragedy far greater than that at Gallipoli. At the back it contains the names of some 5,000 men who fought in Downing's battalion, the 57th. AGE RANGE - US
